In the article, "OSHA Penalties Keep Changing, But the OSH Act Remains the Same," published in EHS Today, Travis Vance speaks to the validity of OSHA’s recent penalty increases and whether employers can legally challenge the increase.

"Several state OSHA plans have indicated that they will not increase their penalties until the OSH Act is amended. Look for these challenges to continue." 

"Employers likely will join the fight to challenge OSHA’s increased penalties and there seems to be merit to that argument. We will keep you updated as this matter unfolds."
